You know, things that add real value to people's days.

Okay, so my hatred of ads might be a little over the top, but think about it. They're fucking EVERYWHERE. ->

Once you start paying attention, there's hardly a metre out there that isn't plastered with vapid attempts to make us buy shit.

Imagine if all those posters were of art. Or beautiful photography. ->

I'm aware that this seems like a really minor gripe in the grand scheme of things, but do we even notice how much of our time and our space is taken up by ads? ->

when I say that the rich beg for money more than the poor ever have.

We need about 5% of that crap. The rest is for their wallets only.

Someone needs to take steps to limit the amount of ads. Seriously. ->

and the fact that ads can keep any app or site alive, no matter how crappy, because of the revenue they bring in, essentially makes quality irrelevant.

On top of that, this is exactly what I mean ->

they're basically used as a punishment ('if you don't give us more money than you can afford, guess what, we'll cram ads down your throat until you choke'), ->

Two of them are in the beginning of each episode, the rest are divided on two separate ad breaks.

Can we just agree that this whole ad thing has gone too far? They pollute all parts of the public sphere, ->

I only hope I will never grow this comfortable again, and that nobody from the generation after me will ever look at a newly weeded garden and conclude from this that weeds belong in the past. 5/5

I've been horribly, terrifyingly privileged to believe that the western world had evolved past this (after first spreading it everywhere we went, but still).

It scares me that this is reality now, and that Europe is not distancing itself like it should. 4/

I grew up thinking that wars, fascism, and dictatorships were falling out of fashion. Something that might still happen in 'Other Places', so far removed from my life that it didn't feel real, but certainly not to anyone I knew.

And yet, here we are. 3/

'How is this even happening? Why isn't this done in a mature way, by people who are trying to at least leave SOME aspects of society intact?'

But my grandparents lived through the last round. If either of them were alive today, they'd recognise it. 2/

I didn't realise this was what I was doing in my comedy series, but it absolutely is. Suddenly I have some really serious passages amongst all the chaos and nonsense. It's an interesting way to work, for sure!

I'm on the mend, but more slowly than I'd like. I have stuff to do, dammit!
